About this book
The violin was first mentioned in a book in the sixteenth century. An abundant and diverse literature on the instrument has grown since then, and a complete general guide to these materials has not been produced in the modern era. The last, Edward Heron-Allen'sDeFidiculis Bibliographia, was published in1894. This book fills that void, organizing and annotating information on the violin from a variety of fields and sources. It provides a comprehensive, though selective, guide to all facets of the instrument. The book is divided into 4 main parts: Reference and General Studies; Acoustics and Construction; Violin Playing, Performance Practice, and Music; and Violinists, Composers, and Violin Teachers. It will serve as a ready reference for students and scholars, and is a welcome addition to the esteemed Routledge Music Bibliography series.

... and applied to the customs officers at Boston for their admission as art antiques, more than one hundred years old. ... As the editor of The Violinist sat in this room it was noted that every instrument in the room is now obsolete.

Excellent Value

I can feel it immediately when I played the violin, it is what I want for practice everyday. I like the feeling when I put my fingers on the fingerboard, It is a wonderfull instrument, of superior quality, although a new instrument with a very large mature sound, and and a lovely nice piece of art. Overall, I think it is absolutely worth and I will recommend my friends to come here and but it.

My son Bryan wanted to play a violin. This was his first time playing one. Looked at the reviews and bought this. When it arrived, he was so excited! He tuned his violin with a tuner we bought. And Bryan kept practicing on his own and used YT. And now he doesn't want to put it down. He loves it! And he plays amazingly. Thank you! This is a beautiful instrument!!! Aloha!

This review is from: Old Antique Style 3/4 Violin Open Clear tone Beautiful -- D Z Strad #N365
We took a risk trying out to buy an instrument online but just like the other reviews, the violin is beautiful and excellent. Better than what we expected. A nice deep and clear sound. Two bows, a shoulder rest, a rosin and a nice casing.Our violin teacher says it was a real good buy too. Definitely will shop with DZ Strad again.Thank you.

For this price I definitely think it is extremely worth it since the violin is very beautiful and the sound is just amazing. I can feel it immediately when I played the violin, it is what I want for practice everyday. I like the feeling when I put my fingers on the fingerboard, the strings are so close to the board, I do not have to push very hard on it. The case is simple but very convenient. It is exactly the kind of case I want, not to heavy or to light that does not protect my violin. The delivery is very fast, which is another plus for this review. Overall, I think it is absolutely worth and I will recommend my friends to come here and but it. Thanks!

A strip of antique parchment, somewhat stained and weathered looking, is the background for this label. On the left, a priceless old violin leans against the unseen border. Below and above are some small floral flourishes, and the right-hand side is taken up with an ornate Victorian corner ornament. The text is easily edited to say anything you would like it to, making this design appropriate for various uses.
